Tottenham are actually standing in the fourth place and know they will remain at same place with a success in the opening game of the weekend. It will strengthen pressure upon Liverpool and in particularly manager Rafa Benitez, whose team start the season with thoughts of title as he now chasing spot qualify for the Champions League.
Although, Harry Redknapp's side have done behave well trying to forget a frustrating defeat to Wolves last month, with strong performance over Wigan and Everton getting them back on track.
Their FA Cup hopes are still alive as well having held Fulham to a goalless draw at Craven Cottage in their last outing.
The Blackburn boss is targeting a top ten spot in the table. That would deliver a considerable improvement on last year when Rovers dancing around relegations before to anchor 15th in the final ranking.
Rovers achieved just one victory away this season, which was against Bolton at the Reebok Stadium back in November.
Sam Allardyce's team do not travel at all well and have lost 10 of their 14 matches away from Ewood Park, including last week's defeat to Liverpool, who are also in the chase for a fourth-place finish.
Verdict: Tottenham vs Blackburn 2-0
